★☆☆☆☆
Very Disappointing Product
I have used Quicken for many years. I also use Quickbooks. So, I am a pretty sophisticated user. I won't quibble about the Quicken interface. My real issue is that I use the program mainly for tracking investments, including stock options (puts and calls). After all these years, I have many defined securities including many, many options. Suddenly, the program will not let me add a new security; to do so I must rename an old security with the security edit feature. Quicken online support won't answer even the question of whether or not there is a limit on the number of securities that you can have -- they refer you to the $1.95 per minute support service. Also, the program was touted as importing option prices. It doesn't. As an attempt to "patch" the security name problem which I suspect is an undocumented limit on the number allowed (with a step that may or may not work, but will apparently cost me the ability to track financial history), I tried to use the "new year" feature to try to cut down the file size. But the program refuses to copy my file or make the conversion. I am now going to try Microsoft Money to see if that will work. I am generally anti-Microsoft, so this move pains me, but Quicken apparently no longer serves my needs.
